Subject: [Question] clone performance
Message-ID: <005f01d55a1f$88e2ab20$9aa80160$@rogers.com>

Hi All,

I'm trying to answer a question for a customer on clone performance. They
are doing at least 2-3 clones a day, of repositories with about 2500 files
and 10Gb of content. This is stressing the file system. I have tried to
convince them that their process is not reasonable and should stick with
existing clones, using branch checkout rather that re=cloning for each
feature branch. Sadly, I have not been successful - not for a lack of
trying. Is there any way to improve raw clone performance in a situation
like this, where status really doesn't matter, because the clone's life span
is under 48 hours.

TIA,
Randall
